DHAKA, Mar 8, 2026 (BSS) - BNP standing committee member and Dhaka-8 lawmaker Mirza Abbas today urged all not to create chaos in the country and called for giving the government a chance to work.

He said those who are trying to incite instability or force the government to fall in various ways should remain patient and consider the country's stability.

Mirza Abbas made the remarks while speaking as the chief guest at an iftar mahfil organised by the Institute of Engineers, Bangladesh (IEB) in the capital this evening.

The event was presided over by IEB interim convener Engineer Md Kabir Hossain.

Addressing the gathering, Abbas said no problem or anarchy should be created in the country, adding that a democratic government has come to power after a long time and should be given an opportunity to work.

"A democratic government has come after 18 years. Please let the government work. The people will decide in the next election whether this government should remain," he said.

The BNP leader also said the party is working to build Bangladesh in a new way. Referring to the roles of Shaheed President Ziaur Rahman and former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia in the country's development, he expressed hope that BNP Chairman and Prime Minister Tarique Rahman would contribute to building a more prosperous Bangladesh in the future.
